Chapter 1822

Zachary agreed with Isabelle’s request with a condition. “Okay, but you have to promise me one thing. If you get caught by the police, you can’t contact us. Otherwise, your Mother will nag me when she finds out. She’ll insist that I pamper you too much.” Isabelle was glad that Zachary was relaxed when it came to her. She promised him and said, “I will not trouble you. At most, I’ll look for Aunt Yara or Brother.” “Mm,” Zachary said, “You can go.” Isabelle hopped around as she took the car keys and left. The moment she left, Zachary called Assistant Yair. “Lil Lion is driving without a license. Help me report her to the police. I want to teach her a lesson, so no one is allowed to help her. Of course, don’t let them know that I’m behind this.” “Understood, Mr. Schick.” Zachary was smart. He knew that Cedar would be the only person Isabelle could rely on if he removed the people she could contact. By then, she would have no choice but to contact Cedar. When Zachary thought about that, he finally realized that he already did so much for Cedar’s sake! Well, he was biased to Cedar because he knew him by his roots. He would be at ease of mind if Isabelle went with him. Even so, Zachary would not force it against Isabelle’s will. He would not nudge Isabelle if she still had no feelings for Cedar in the end. Zachary got up and went to the kitchen. He asked Caroline, “Mrs. Schick, what are you up to?” “I’m cooking. Where’s Bella?” asked Caroline. “She left. It’s just the two of us at home.” Hearing that, Caroline sighed. “What you said was right. Once our children grow up, we can’t force them to stay because they’re busy with their own matters. Even when they’re free, they don’t have the patience to accompany us.” Zachary smiled and asked, “Baby, what are you trying to say?” “Second Brother, you’re the only one who can stay with me for a lifetime.” After Caroline said that, she lowered her head shyly and added, “I’m already in my early forties and you’re still calling me baby. How embarrassing.” Zachary lowered his gaze and observed his dearest wife in front of him. Her looks did not change much from the first time he met her. Only her charms became more mature, and it made her sexier and more attractive to him. Zachary spent all his time with Caroline day and night. He knew the amount of effort Caroline spent to maintain her looks. She even carefully took care of his face. It had been an essential daily routine for them to put on a facial mask in the morning and night. Zachary enjoyed their daily routine a lot. After all, Caroline personally served him with dedication. That was why he still looked the same compared to when he first met Caroline. Whenever Isabelle saw how her father put on his facial mask, she could not imagine how her Father was as cold and cruel as what the outsiders had said. He was obviously a silly man. His silliness only belonged to her Mother. Isabelle drove the sportscar along the highway on the coastline. Isabelle was an adventurous person. She was the best at having fun. She was good at almost everything, including skating, skiing, surfing, skydiving, paragliding, racing, and so on. She was proficient in all her hobbies, and she was not afraid of any danger. She had strong and professional survival skills too. Although she got into an accident when she paraglided the other day, she managed to remain calm the entire time. The only problem was that her clothes were too thin, and she could not get out from the snow she crashed into. Her phone dropped in the nearby area. If she left the area, she would lose contact with her family. Fortunately, her persistence was alright, and Cedar found her in time. “Eh, is it snowing already?” It was a miracle for it to snow in Espoo during June. Isabelle gradually slowed down her drive. Just when she gradually slowed down, police sirens blared from behind her car. She curled her lips into a smile and slammed the gas pedal. As she accelerated, the police’s voice came from behind through the loudspeaker. “To the speeding white sports car in front, please pull over. Please pull over…”
